Therion – A’arab Zaraq Lucid Dreaming – Review

March 1, 1998

Split between a rock album (with covers) combined with leftovers from the Theli sessions and material intended as a soundtrack to a Swedish art film.

The Joykiller – Three – Review

March 1, 1998

This is as punk as Joe Jackson, if you know what I’m saying. If not, fuck you.

The Upper Crust – The Decline & Fall of the Upper Crust – Review

December 1, 1997

With 11 innuendo-filled, AC/DC-flavored pastries on this platter, The Decline & Fall is a treat like no other band can serve.

The Toy Dolls – One More Megabyte – Review

December 1, 1997

It’s fun, manic, talented, destructive, and sarcastic. Think Schlong humping White Lion and you’ve got the idea. The first Toy Dolls record with US distro.

Stickmen – Life Colored Green – Review

December 1, 1997

Heavy groovecore, stomping choruses, pogo-able sing-a-longs, and a variety of styles anyone into Korn, Powerman 5000, or Sam Black Church could get into.

Pantera – Official Live: 101 Proof – Review

December 1, 1997

Fourteen live tracks spanning the albums, two new studio cuts at the end.

Groovie Ghoulies – Re-Animation Festival – Review

December 1, 1997

Keeping the Ramonesian simplicity mixed with Misfitting graveyard kitsch, this is just an amazing sounding record. Simple, sweet, huge, and loud.

Entombed – DCLXVI To Ride, Shoot Straight and Speak the Truth! – Review

December 1, 1997

Buried underneath all the slash’n’burn death roaring and chainsaw production (courtesy, again, of Tomas Skogsberg), there lies a rock’n’roll band.

Volcano – Review

December 1, 1997

Sure, Dante’s Paek had a beautiful mountain, but Volcano has fireballs and whole city blocks getting destroyed.

Rosewood – Review

December 1, 1997

Rosewood is one of those rare movies that is beautifully set, rich and believable in time, place, and culture, yet painful for those exact same reasons.
